“…The growing awareness of societies regarding environmental protection has resulted in efforts undertaken to increase the share of renewable energy in the total energy consumption in various countries (Borjesson and Gustavsson, 1996;Gokcol et al, 2009). Saidur et al (2012) argue that wood and wood wastes, followed by agricultural crops and their by-products, are the most important sources of energy from biomass.…”

A b s t r a c t. Cereal straw is an important biomass source inEurope. This work assessed: 1) the morphological and energetic characteristics of culms of spring and winter cereals, 2) the energy deposited in the different aboveground parts of cereals, 3) losses of energy due to different cutting heights. The straw of winter and spring cereals was collected from arable fields during the seasons 2009/10 and 2010/11 in southern Poland. Detailed biometric measurements of culms and internodes were performed. The losses of straw biomass and energy were assessed during simulation of cutting the culm at different heights, up to 50 cm. Longer and heavier culms were developed by winter wheat and triticale and oat. Cutting of straw up to 10 cm did not lead to significant losses in straw yield. The total amount of energy in the culms was as follows: triticale > winter wheat > oat > spring wheat > winter barley > spring barley. Cutting the culms above 20 cm led to significant differences in terms of biomass energy between cereal species. The smallest losses of energy were recorded for spring and winter barley. Oat and barley accumulated the highest energy in grains.

“…La biomasa vegetal lignocelulósica es la que contiene mayor capacidad para generar energía renovable, esta se puede encontrar en residuos de diferentes industrias agrícolas y forestales (Bahng et al, 2009, Gokcol et al, 2009. En Costa Rica, las condiciones tropicales permiten el desarrollo de estas industrias, lo que genera un alto porcentaje de residuos útiles para la producción de energía (Tenorio & Moya, 2012).…”

<p>Se cuantificaron las propiedades energéticas de la biomasa torrefaccionada de dos especies forestales, Dipteryx panamensis y Gmelina arborea. Se tomaron 500 gramos de aserrín provenientes del proceso de aserrío primario de cada especie y se dividió en tres partes para aplicar tres tipos de tiempos a la exposición de temperatura, denominado como tratamientos: el tratamiento número 1 es el testigo, el cual no se torrefaccionó (0 minutos). El tratamiento número 2 consistió en aplicar una temperatura de 200 °C por 15 minutos, y el tratamiento número 3 consistió en aplicar una temperatura de 200 °C por 20 minutos. A este se le determinó densidad, contenido de cenizas, poder calórico, contenido de humedad e índice de combustibilidad. Las densidades de ambas especies variaron entre 155,48 kg/m3 a 191,86 kg/m3. El poder calórico paso de 9749,00 kJ/kg a 18126,35 kJ/kg con el proceso de torrefacción. Los porcentajes de cenizas se mantuvieron en un rango de 0,39 % a 1,07 %, y para el índice de combustibilidad en un rango de 109,31 a 6675,93; los valores más bajos los presentó el tratamiento a 0 minutos en ambas especies. Se logró determinar que la torrefacción incrementa las propiedades energéticas del material y que Dipteryx panamensis fue la que presentó un mejor comportamiento como combustible.</p>

“…As a result of the consuming fossil fuels, some gases such as CO2, NOx and CO released into atmosphere also lead to some negative results such as environmental pollution, global warming and seasonal changes by greenhouse gas effect. Together with all these negative effects; tendencies of countries to renewable and alternative energy resources to reduce foreign dependency increase day by day [2]. These energy resources whose sources are free and unlimited, environmentally friendly, clean, renewable and sustainable are wind, solar, geothermal, hydrogen, wave and biomass.…”
